Old style graphics (a la sim city) for a satirical game centered on a mechanic that was excluded by sim city because it would have been boring, as revealed by a developer
The developer mentioned it's being built on Linux, so it will of course have Native Linux support.

It is at world level, according to WHO
https://www.who.int/data/gho/data/themes/topics/topic-details/GHO/road-traffic-mortality
In the linked page the same WHO states that road fatalities are the leading cause of death "for children and young adults aged 5–29 years":
https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/road-traffic-injuries
Comodo, ma non ho trovato un modo sensato per "scalare" un video senza dovermi calcolare a mano sia la risoluzione verticale che orizzontale. In altre parole manca la spunta "maniteni proporzioni". O sbaglio?
except for the “cars are great” part.
Yeah... Excluding moron drivers you have:
- fucking dangerous for anyone outside the car
- killing millions every year
- main cause of death among those aged 15–29 years
- air pollution
- noise pollution
- one of the main sources of greenhouse emissions
- wasting space where it's more valuable
- wasting money on subsides, directly and indirectly because of roads needed
- distorting urban growth to increase dependency on it
I'm probably still forgetting something important...

The contract requires repair shops to "immediately disassemble" devices that have parts "not purchased from Samsung."
![Samsung Requires Independent Repair Shops to Share Customer Data, Snitch on People Who Use Aftermarket Parts, Leaked Contract Shows](https://discuss.tchncs.de/pictrs/image/cf5ce8dc-6e4b-4bf1-b681-06c8c6bf3261.png?format=webp&thumbnail=256)
A leaked "independent" repair shop contract shows that Samsung requires them to give Samsung the name, contact information, phone identifier, and customer complaint details of everyone who gets their phone repaired at these shops,
Stunningly, it also requires these nominally independent shops to “immediately disassemble” any phones that customers have brought them that have been previously repaired with aftermarket or third-party parts and to “immediately notify” Samsung
It's the second in a row news about Samsung acting agsunst the customers right to repair, showing how much we need good right to repair laws.
iFixit and Samsung's self-repair collaboration ends (two years after launch)

As revealed by iFixit, Samsung collaboration never worked well, with parts that were too expensive, and/or glued together (like a battery+screen replacement!)
Moreover Samsung never really tried to make their designs more repairable.
ifixit blog post is full of episodes, like when Samsung and iFixit announced an upcycle program, and then Samsung disappeared.
Ok, Samsung is cleared not interested in making their product repairable.
I was genuinely surprised, because what you wrote was really different from what I experienced. But my experience i Munich is objectively limited. I somehow hoped that Germany, and Munich (along with other European cities) could be used as a model of how to do things right.
What drives me mad here is the absolute inaction
Exactly, and all this stuff about counting the cars is to try to move something. I have not much hope honestly, but excluding violence and vandalism, I think this is as much as someone can do
The city even responds to requests with the risk of damage to cars (!!) instead of considering humans.
This is completely crazy. In Milan they justify bad parking by saying things like "it has always been like this" or "yeah, but you can go around it" etc. FFS, do your job!!
I don't know... I have been there twice in the last 4 years, and I went in many places (touristy and not, I was there for work, Just as examples: Truderinger Str. or Marsstraße are not so central) and never saw anything like that. For sure I didn't see cars parked on the bus stop or on the zebra crossings.
But anyway, with a similar car density (but people density is almost double in Milan) I am not be surprised that the situation is comparable in both places.
So, well, you should organize and count them too! I think that such a status is unacceptable independently of where it happens 🙂
I have been in Munich... Not remotely comparable.
Did you see the pictures in the article below? They are not an exception. Cars are parked like this in all Milan, on all the streets.
![the background blur](https://feddit.it/pictrs/image/4733cf29-4c0b-41a7-bc1b-13476587248b.webp?thumbnail=256&format=webp)

Milan has 51 cars for 100 inhabitants, which is the double of other big cities in Europe, like Madrid (291,3) o Paris (225,2). One of the consequences is that traffic is terrible, and Milan is, for example, one of the worst cities on TomTom traffic index
Another big consequence is that motorists will park cars everywhere, because the number of legal on-street parking spots much lower than needed (the number of on-street parking spots is already much higher than other similar European cities) . If you have ever been in Milan, you would know that you can find cars parked on the sidewalks, on the bike lanes, between the trees at the side of the road, on zebra crossings, at the corners of intersections, at the bus stops, double parked (take a look at the pictures in this article to get an idea). This is a big issue, because people with reduced mobility, parents with strollers, people with sight issues are strongly impaired by this situation. Moreover an average of 5 times every day, public transit (trams and buses) gets stuck because of some really badly parked car, causing delays for tens or hundreds of people.
The administration is not willing to help and tolerates the status without doing much except the worst situations. They fear that this will impact their popularity, and may lose next elections. It is a well known fact that getting a ticket for illegal parking is so rare, that it costs less than a legal payed parking spot!
People was so fed up with the situation that and association called "Sai che puoi?" was able to organize an event to count and map illegally parked cars during the night of May 16th. It took a long time and effort, with some tests on a few blocks performed in the past. They also did a great social campaign with posts and videos like this one , and developed a web app on purpose.
The results were astonishing: 2000 people took part, and were able to walk all the 1700 km of the 3780 streets in the city and count illegally parked cars, divided by parking location (on the street, on the sidewalks, between the trees)
!the streets of Milan turned green because all of them were part of the count at the end
Results:
- 64000 illegally parked cars (during the day the situation gets even worse, with people coming from outside the city!)
- 37000 on the street
- 15000 on the sidewalks
- 11000 on the grass or between the trees
This means that the city administration could get 5.3 million euros of tickets in one night, which means the equivalent of 134000 public transit month tickets.
The final aim is to force the administration to act and do something. The idea is that neglecting the issue with such numbers should be more difficult.
I think this is a great story, and I never heard of something like this from anywhere else. I want to say thank you to the organizers and I would love to get this event known outside Italy

In generale trovo che abbia poco senso un’alleanza di partiti di estrema destra di diverse nazioni.
Poi improvvisamente si accorgono che i nazisti sono nazisti. Quando si accorgeranno che i fascisti sono fascisti, cosa faranno?
Ma non potrebbero essere un po' coerenti e dire le cose che pensano veramente? Dire chiaramente che sono razzisti, che vogliono una stampa sotto controllo, e impedire la libertà di parola, di pensiero?
Perché nascondersi dietro una bella faccia, se tutti sanno qual è la verità?
Ma porca pupazza.
Questa storia è allucinante. Sono completamente in disaccordo con l'opinione espressa dal tizio, ma:
- non sarei neanche dovuto venirne a conoscenza
- è una frase su una chat, ho letto e sentito cose molto più violente, anche da politici e gente pubblica, senza conseguenze
- i CPR sono una merda. Dobbiamo smettere di trattare le persone così. Altrimenti poi ci troveremo veramente i terroristi in casa
I see some serious issues in this project
- The speed would seem very low.
- To increase the speed you would need to improve the infrasctructure, but this would not be cheap
- even if technolgy is old, doesn't mean it's good. verythin that is elf-balancing is at risk of falling in case of failure...
Cool project tho

> The Universe of Adventure Sci-Fi Bundle - Curated by independent authors John Wilker & Dave Walsh: When it comes to science fiction, there are a lot of different flavors. Through the ages, science fiction has been many things to a great many people. It’s never been just one thing. Just one type of story. There's sci-fi that's quiet and contemplative, sci-fi that sticks to our understanding of modern science, then there's sci-fi that spans different galaxies and times, or even sci-fi that warps our understanding of reality.

Complimenti ai politici che ci hanno governato negli ultimi 20 anni, che nel proteggere categorie e corporazioni e interessi particolari, hanno impedito qualunque sviluppo decente, hanno mantenuto le diseguaglianze quando non le hanno peggiorate, e hanno peggiorato tutti i servizi pubblici, nessuno escluso.

Si tratta di "invisibilità dell'automobile" o "guerra tra poveri": la maggior parte delle persone non si accorge che il sopruso è quello dello spazio quasi totalmente dedicato alle automobili, e si incazza quando quel poco che rimane viene "minacciato".
In più sui media si legge solo di biciclette e monopattini che "sfrecciano" sui marciapiedi, dimenticandosi i 10 morti al giorno realmente provocati dalle auto...

Di recente ho scoperto un modo relativamente semplice per avere accesso al sistema Android, senza dovermi complicare troppo la vita.
Una delle cose più immediate da fare è la disinstallazione di qualunque applicazione, anche di sistema, senza root, e senza shell ADB via collegamento USB
Come fare?
- quello che serve si può installare usando Droidify che è un client F-droid che include già vari repository tra cui anche Izziondroid.
- abilitare le "opzioni sviluppatore" di android, per accedere alle opzioni di debug
- Installare Shizuku
- Avviare Shizuku tramite "debug wireless" (android 11 e successivi). L'app include istruzioni passo passo da seguire. Questa parte è un po' intricata, ma portate pazienza
- Installate Canta
- Canta fornisce una lista delle app installate affiancandole ad una valutazione fornita dal database di universal android debloater, che aiuta a capire cosa si può disinstallare senza romepre il sistema ("reccomended"), e cosa invece richiede più attenzione ("expert" o "unsafe"). Cliccando su ciascuna applicaizione vengono fornite ulteriori informazioni su cosa l'app fa
- Nelle FAQ di Universal android debloater trovate la spiegazione di ciascuna valurazione
- Selezionate quel che volete, cliccate disinstalla. Apparirà un popup di Shikuzu per autorizzare Canta, date l'autorizzazione, ed è fatta!
Io personalmente ho comprato un tablet Lenovo, era pieno di schifezze. L'ho fatto diventare un quasi "android puro". Ne vale la pena

Incredibile storia di merdificazione di una sedia a rotelle.
OP del post originale su Lemmy ha una sedia a rotelle fornita da una compagnia assicurativa, che però non paga l'app collegata.
L'app serve a sbloccare funzionalità anche abbastanza basilari (come cruise control o velocità leggermente superiori) a prezzi osceni.
OP dice anche nelle risposte che la stessa azienda offre una sedia a rotelle più vecchia, senza app, con tutte le funzionalità da subito, a prezzo più basso! Ma la scelta del modello spetta alla compagnia assicuratrice...
A che bassezza arriveremo?

I know it's a small chance but if someone using the same wheels finds this post, you have to figure out how to download luckypatcher and use this version of the app. In lucky patcher create a multi patch APK and make sure to turn off "billing" in the second screen. When opening the store, be careful not to scroll to the complete bottom or else the app wil crash. Buy each pack individually and lucky patcher will handle things from there. > > To every commenter: thank you. Lemmings are the best and capitalism is the devil.
